ADRipper is an interface for easy ripping (extraction) and encoding of audio
CDs. Track names and other metadata can be retrieved automatically through the
CDDB database. If your CD-ROM drive is connected to a sound card, you can also
listen to the CD from within the program.
Installation:
* Copy the ADRipper drawer to your location of choice.
* DO NOT mix files from this release with an older installation!
* DO NOT replace the provided encoder plugins or language catalogs with files
downloaded from OS4depot or Aminet. The latter are quite probably outdated and
may cause trouble.
* The "Developers" and "Translators" drawers are optional. You can safely remove
them if you don't plan to translate ADRipper or develop new plugins for it.
Release notes for version 1.13:
- updated mp3.encoder, flac.encoder and oggvorbis.encoder (linked with the
latest libraries)
- added an option to start ripping automatically when you insert a CD (AutoRip)
- added an option to eject the CD when ripping is finished
- CD-ROM discs containing only data are no longer passed off as audio CDs
- the drawer template in Preferences now accepts the slash character so that
encoded tracks can be stored in multi-level directories
- reimplemented program window snapshotting (requires AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition)
- when ripping in iconified state, the program icon text will now indicate which
track is being encoded
- CDDB query/download no longer opens a waiting requester; instead, the process
is indicated graphically in the status bar
- implemented automatic revision bumping in CDDB submissions to minimize server
rejection
- fixed the submission of the "extended data" CDDB field (it actually never got
exported in previous versions)
- disc metadata is now properly converted to UTF-8 before uploading it to the
CDDB database (previously, UTF-8 conversion only worked for CDDB downloads)
- fixed track length calculation bug affecting CDs with a data track (extraction
would terminate with a read error resulting from a miscalculated length of the
last audio track)
- fixed the behaviour of the Eject/Insert button so that the gadget imagery is
always in line with the current function
- if the output path set in the Preferences is invalid, ADRipper will now try to
create the directory for you (instead of just showing an error message)
- improved the handling of illegal characters and multiple spaces in track names
- reworked the drive scanning code at program startup to prevent unwanted
mounting of the Google Drive and/or the DropBox handler (if installed)
- fixed a bogus "Out of memory" error where an AISS image was in fact missing
- various GUI improvements and fixes
- recompiled against the latest public SDK
- updated documentation and translations
